Specs:
AMD XP 2800+ 333 bus
MSI K7N2 Delta-L
512 MB PC3200 Corsair
ATI Radeon 9700 Pro
400w Antec power supply
DirectX 9.0a / Cat 3.5 Drivers

It appears that my Direct 3D is glitching out with the radeon 9700. Polygons are shooting all over the place. It gets so bad that I cant even see while I play any games. When I run the d3d test from dxdiag, the cube spins normaly, but there is distortion on the edges. When I run 3Dmark 2001, all the tests are distorted. In some, you cant even tell what is happening. Huge lines and walls appear all over the place.

Any idea how to fix this problem?

Yes, they are enabled.
Heres another thing I noticed. The Windows XP startup logo is also distorted. Not sure why that would be yet desktop graphics seem normal.
